[Pkg-mc-devel] Bug#564467: File types in mc don't get highlighted because the file "filehighlight.ini" is missing

[Heinrich Kuettler]

Package: mc
Version: 3:4.7.0-1
Severity: normal

Since the last update of mc, all file entries had the same color (the
"normal" color, by default lightgray), instead of being different for
different file types (directory, symlink, etc.).

I was able to fix this by copying the filehighlight.ini file from the Git
archive of mc to ~/.mc.

This filehighlight.ini file is also attached.
